High bar or low bar squat

alan thrall makes a video on the difference. Look it up, but in a nutshell he says a low bar squat is basically everything in a deadlift while a high bar squat hits the posterior chain

>hear about the low bar vs high bar meme
>Never really pay any attention to it
>One day while squatting notice I squat high bar
>Try a low bar squat
>Do working set ezpz
>Add 5kg
>LIGHT WEIGHT BABY
>Add 5kg more
>Struggle but push through it
>Fuck it mane go hard or go home
>Add 5 k g more
>Bang out 5 reps
>Struggle but push them out
>Fuck high bar, low bar ftw
>High bar, never again.

>make lift easier
>act like its just as impressive

This is the mindset that leads to silly back arching on bench and sumo deadlifts.

Lift properly, stop the corruption.

>silly back arching on bench
enjoy your no chest gains, along with your upcoming rotator cuff injury bitch boi

I meant more like the arch you see women and manlets doing in powerlifting contests, were the back is like 12 inches off the bench.
Of course a small arch is acceptable to prevent injury.

op here
i think ill just make a vid how i do both
and upload here some day so people can see which form is better

My issue with high bar is that it mashes my traps to shit, which isnt terrible but its there
but lowbar feels "tighter" and less stable idk

i have less practice on lowbar tho so that might be the issue

with highbar sometimes the bar is resting on my back unevenly

>high bar = mostly quads

This isn't front squat. High bar and low bar isn't such a drastically different exersise. It just switches up your levers and includes a bit more of the hips. The main movers are still the same as high bar.

no such thing. it's either butt on the bench or not. how much you arch is based on your body structure. git gud

LMAO fuck back squats.

Front squat + Deadlifts masterrace

>outside on the loan

but i don't want to owe anyone
